Subject: Nude Ira Einhorn Enrages US State Department and Philly DA
Date: Friday, December 17, 1999 4:16 PM

Dear News/Editor:

The article about the frustrated extradition of Ira Einhorn in today's
Philadelphia Daily News, "It's too much to bare - Angered by Ira pix, DA
turns to feds", would almost be funny if it were not so serious.  The DA has
a psychotic episode over a naked man photo and "the tabloids" lap it up and
spew it out.

Transparently "yellow journalism" articles like this one incite the American
lynchmob mentality fostered by the Philly DA, Lynne "Faulty Information"
Abrahams, who is also misrepresenting the truth on other very important
aspects of this case according to attorney John W. Packel, Chief of the
Appeals Division of the Philadelphia Public Defender Office for 30 years.
In one of several notarized affidavits he has filed on the Einhorn case, on
November 27, 1998, he responds to Abraham's affidavit "guaranteeing" that
Einhorn will receive a new trial (a reported prerequisite for France's
extradition permission) and her overtures to the State Department by saying:

"Frankly I am appalled, but not surprised, by the District Attorney's
'guarantee' which refers to the statute granting a new trial but makes no
reference whatsoever to the controlling decisions of the Pennsylvania
Supreme Court unequivocally holding that
any such statute is invalid [because] the legislature has no authority to
impair or overturn a judgement of the courts.  Furthermore I am surprised
and disappointed by the State Department's blind endorsement of this
misleading document.  ...the District Attorney ignores, making absolutely no
reference to, clear and compelling authority establishing that the statute
it drafted is unconstitutional, unenforcable, and invalid."

What's going on with the Philly DA and the US State Department that they are
resorting to unconstitutional means and misrepresentation to close the case
on the Maddux murder by trying to extradite Einhorn under false and illegal
pretexts?

This is but one example of the witch-hunt, Inquisitional, McCarthyism kind
of practices of the American "Judged by the Media" mentality manifest in
Philadelphia where the US Constitution is flaunted by increasing numbers of
in-absentia trials disallowing the accused to confront his/her accusers.

If Einhorn was framed for this crime, as he claims and piles of affidavits
from prominent witnesses in his attorney's possession evidence, all this may
indicate the potentially high levels of complicity to silence Ira Einhorn,
the person described in the Daily News on April 14, 1978, as "Philadelphia's
tireless activist and warm-hearted humanist".

If the ignored evidence on file, gone unreported and disallowed at Einhorn's
in-absentia trial, does prove that he was framed, then Philadelphia should
hire a DA more psychologically stable and honest to find Holly's real
murderer.

Oh well, whatever sells newspapers is the name of the game, at least so
claimed Theresa Conroy of the Daily News in her recent phone conversation
with me.

It's too much to bare

Angered by Ira pix, DA turns to feds

by Theresa Conroy
Daily News Staff Writer

 Philadelphia District Attorney Lynne Abraham is getting some help in
hauling fugitive Ira Einhorn back home.

U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright has taken action on a plea
Abraham sent to Albright in a Dec. 1 letter.

"The secretary did receive the letter that was sent by Lynne Abraham. It
arrived Dec. 6," Philip Reeker, a State Department spokesman, said
yesterday.

"She directed that a cable be sent to the embassy in Paris instructing them
to go in at senior levels at the [French] Ministry of Foreign Affairs and
the Ministry of Justice to express our serious concern about the lack of
progress for the resolution of this important extradition case," he said.

Abraham said yesterday that she sent the three-page letter to Albright to
"move the process along."

Einhorn - a fugitive for more than 16 years - was discovered and arrested in
France in June, 1997. He has been fighting extradition back to Philadelphia,
where he was convicted in absentia in 1993 of killing his girlfriend, Holly
Maddux.

Abraham sent a copy of her letter to the U.S. ambassador to France.

"I want France to live up to its treaty obligation," she said.

Abraham told Albright in the letter that she was recently disturbed by an
Esquire magazine photo that showed the paunchy fugitive - in all his naked
glory - playing in a stream that runs along his country home in Southwestern
France.

"There is really no earthly reason why Mr. Einhorn should be able to cavort
in the nude while the extradition order sits unsigned," she said.

"His performance in that pond on his home was disgusting," she said.

In May, a French appeals court agreed to send Einhorn home, but his
extradition papers must first be signed by French Prime Minister Lionel
Jospin.

Jospin has the option of refusing to sign off on the extradition, although
international experts have said this might inspire strained diplomatic
relations between France and the United States.

Abraham said this was her first direct plea for Albright's help. She also
said that she heard from "reliable sources" that Einhorn's extradition
papers have not even been delivered to Jospin.

But Abraham's information from France has been faulty in the past.

Abraham said in May that the prime minister was required to take action on
the extradition within two weeks. It has been nearly seven months - there
was no such requirement.

Abraham also maintained at the outset of Einhorn's extradition hearing that
the case in France was safely in the hands of a French prosecutor assigned
to represent Philadelphia in court.

In fact, that prosecutor went on vacation, passing the case on to another in
his office. In turn, the new prosecutor went on vacation and passed the case
onto a woman who appeared to have almost no knowledge of the case.

It was after that courtroom debacle - during which Einhorn's attorneys
misrepresented facts without question by the prosecutor - that a Bordeaux
court at first refused to return Einhorn.

The case has limped along since that initial wounding.

Abraham yesterday declined to reveal the sources of her information on
Einhorn's case.
